“The truth about our childhood is stored up in our body, and although we can repress it, we can never alter it. Our intellect can be deceived, our feelings manipulated, and conceptions confused, and our body tricked with medication. But someday our body will present its bill, for it is as incorruptible as a child, who, still whole in spirit, will accept no compromises or excuses, and it will not stop tormenting us until we stop evading the truth.”
― Alice Miller

“The world is not comprehensible, but it is embraceable: through the embracing of one of its beings.”
― Martin Buber

“Unless a partner is able to say “no” when a “no” is called for, their “yeses” can be hard to trust.”
― Alicia Muñoz, No More Fighting: The Relationship Book for Couples: 20 Minutes a Week to a Stronger Relationship
